The Jerusalem Post reports that Israel’s image in the international media has deteriorated since the 2005 disengagement from the Gaza Strip, despite expectations to the contrary, according to a study conducted at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
"According to a statement released by the Department of Media Relations at the university, instead of helping mend Israel’s "image as an occupier and an oppressor," and decreasing international demands for major territorial concessions on Israel’s part, the disengagement only served to aggravate Israel’s already poor showings in the international media arena."
